TI  - Variation of Antioxidant Activity and Total Phenolic Content of Tea (Camellia sinensis L. O. Kuntze) Genotypes
AB  - This study was carried out to determine tea (Camellia sinensis L. O.Kuntze) genotypes with high antioxidant activity and also high totalphenolic content (TPC) in Rize/Turkey conditions in 2017. In theresearch, the seeds collected from tea plantations located at differentfive locations of Rize were used. Plants were grown under controlledconditions in pots in greenhouse at first and then transferred to fieldconditions. Harvest of fresh leaves was realized for 3.5 leaves (threeleaves and bud) in August. Ferric-Reducing Antioxidant Power(FRAP) and total phenol content of young leaves of selected 103genotypes were determined. As a result, FRAP values variedbetween 638.4 and 1093.0 mg FeSO4 g-1 dw while total phenolcontent varied from 210.9 to 450.6 mg GAE g-1 dw depending on thegenotypes. FRAP values belonging each genotype group representinglocations were very close to each other. On the other hand, 87 of atotal of 103 genotypes had high antioxidant values. The fact that thegenotypes showed a high level of antioxidant activity and totalphenol content reveals the presence of evaluable tea genotypes to beused in tea breeding in Rize
